Celebrity Buzz – The Rise Of Popular Cosmetic Procedures In 2024

As with all celebrity trends–clothes, shoes, makeup, hairstyles–the “ins” and “outs” change yearly. It usually doesn’t happen overnight, but some fads fluctuate over several months. Some trends are easier to follow than others, including popular plastic surgery procedures. These surgeries rarely fall off the radar quickly and are typically on the upswing for several years before reaching the top, giving ample time for us to know what’s hot and what’s not.

So, what plastic surgeries are on the rise in 2024? We’ve got the information on what six surgeries are making their way up the list of popular cosmetic procedures in Hollywood–and beyond.

Facial Fat Grafting

While dermal fillers are still popular among those wanting to create facial volume, interest in the more natural approach of fat grafting has grown significantly. The surgeon begins this procedure by removing a small amount of fat from a donor area, such as the stomach, hips, or thighs. Next, they purify the fat by spinning it in a centrifuge. For the final step, the surgeon injects the fat cells into the areas that require added volume, providing lift and youth to the complexion.

Brow Lifts

Sometimes, age causes us to experience some facial sagging. A prime example is if the patient’s eyebrows begin to droop. This change can lead to an altered resting facial expression that can appear disgruntled or angry. Some patients choose a brow lift if they have uneven or asymmetrical eyebrows. A brow lift can also eliminate wrinkles and lines from this area, leaving the patient with a smoother, softer appearance.

Closed Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a nose job, is a procedure to reshape the nose. Although rhinoplasty is often an elective procedure, there are cases where it can be a medical necessity. For instance, if a patient has a condition that prevents regular breathing, such as a deviated septum, surgery to change the nose’s shape would correct the issue.

During rhinoplasty, the surgeon will make incisions at the base of the nose, near the nostrils. Closed rhinoplasty is becoming a more frequent practice. This process allows the surgeon to make two small incisions inside the nostril rather than outside, limiting visible scarring. Both surgeries proceed with the surgeon removing excess cartilage and shaving the nasal bone to create a smaller, more proportionate nose.

Breast Augmentation With Fat Transfer

While the safety and efficacy of breast implants have increased, some patients may still be unsure of these medical devices. Patients who desire the most natural approach to breast augmentation can elect to have a fat transfer procedure.

Breast augmentation with fat transfer is a two-step surgery. The surgeon begins with liposuction to remove fat cells from the donor area. This donor site, often the abdomen, buttocks, or thighs, will be sculpted to create a more flattering figure. Next, the surgeon cleanses and separates the fat cells before injecting them into the designated areas of the chest. These added cells will combine with the natural tissue in the breast to create more volume and add feminine flair to the figure.

Lip Lifts

A lip lift eliminates loose and sagging skin from your mouth and lips–think of a highly concentrated facelift. Non-invasive treatments like dermal fillers require regular maintenance to accomplish this result. Lip lifts can produce long-lasting results without continued injections. Although a lip lift won’t add the volume a filler can, they are popular among patients who want to decrease the appearance of sagging, drooping skin between their noses and mouths.

Non-Invasive Treatments

Some patients want to see a reduction in facial wrinkles or add volume in areas of their face but prefer to avoid surgery to accomplish these things. These patients may be more likely to choose Botox or dermal fillers. Botox is an effective way for patients to reduce fine lines, produce smooth skin, and prevent future facial wrinkles by temporarily paralyzing the muscles. Dermal fillers increase volume and add lift to facial features. Both fillers and Botox can produce a wrinkle-free, youthful appearance.

Conclusion

The increase in a more natural approach to cosmetic surgeries has prompted the creation of varied techniques. Whether you want to keep up with the latest celebrity trends or are looking for alternative solutions to classic procedures, these techniques provide every patient with an option that will work for them.
